@@paladro I agree that the show's best days are long gone, unless they make some changes. I could be totally wrong, but from my point of view, in my opinion, it seems like they are soooooo worried about being politically correct and sensitive/supportive of all races, genders and sexuality self-idenification (I don't think that that is actually a word but it got my point across at least lol). They seem more worried about showing everyone how "woke" they are then are about being funny. I wish it was like things used to be, were people were able to take a joke. So many people I know appear to walk around just looking for things to be offended by, its obnoxious. I meam, it's a joke. Lighten up a little and laugh.
Really one of the best performances I’ve ever seen on SNL. She portrays some heavy stuff in the most beautiful funny way. The audience didn’t appreciate this.
Lol literally just saw this scene on Hulu and looked it up on RUclips to come comment the exact same thing. One of the best performances I’ve ever on SNL.

@@gothicalpha literally i feel like I've seen that trope so many times before I can't pin down the specific movies? I guess it's been used that often it's just become a parody in itself
The audience was confused by this, but I was howling. Michelle Pfeiffer in Scarface, every Tony Soprano mistress. “Colin laaahhves beautiful women!” “Lemme give you a son, Michael.”
She used to be a hair stylist. I bet she's heard a million stories. I think she said once she used to do bits at work and everyone encouraged her to pursue SNL, so she did and got it.
@user259169 Too too true!!! I worked at an entertainment law firm & the partners’ coke was delivered on Monday mornings, stashed inside the weekly front desk flower arrangements. And I regularly found nose candy 🍭crumbs on the marble countertop in the private bathroom. 🎻🎼🎤Memmmries... light the corners of my mind. Oh the tales I could tell, that office was a regular Romper Room, all the high-powered lawyers & of course, the musicians, actors & writers they repped bouncing off the walls at all hours of the day & on through the night. They’d get so pinned at lunchtime, nothing got done in the afternoon so all-nighters were the norm. If it weren’t for the handful of sober folks (+ me!), nothing would’ve ever gotten done.
As an 80s kid, I’ve seen her character too often. The audience members clearly didn’t get it. Heidi’s performance and lines were too sublime for them. Love Heidi. Underused and exceptional.
Too good a performance. She gave me chills. That desperate, where’s the after party. The fear of being alone. That if you stop you die. Knowing everyone around you sees you as the mess you are. Too damn good, Heidi.
She just acted out every 80's cop show druggie! And she obviously still doesn't know about cell phones! "I'm sorry, Starsky! Please, don't tell Hutch! It would crush him, baby!"
Heidi committed all the way through this skit. Flashbacks of all the 80s and 90s movie and tv junkies are running through my head like oh there’s Carla and there she is again oh another one!
@@paperdoll5467 house call, I think they felt what I felt and that was kind of creeped out. It was funny, but she kind of went south of the jocularity line. Comedy is funny because it's tied to realism. But you have to be really cunning to pull it off because her dramatic chops put us right in the middle of an f'd females life. Ever see the old Sally Field-Tom Hanks movie about being a stand-up comic? They touched on that. The young lady from SNL has loads of talent, but it was like a plane dipping a wing on landing: we all lived to laugh it off, but that was kinda weird.
Applause to the actress for this part. She acted it so well that it made me sad, because there are so many "Carla's" out there and equally unhappy and troubled.
Heidi is unbelievably talented....beautiful too. She just so nails these characters....not only these wounded women types but her teen Bailey Gismert is spot on as well. Love her!
Great performance, happy she got an opportunity to show off this character. Reminds me of an aunt I see once every 5 years, she has a lost in a time air about her
Exactly! The premise of that joke is so true it’s embarrassing. Could just as easily have been Scorcese, if she’d had a bit less dialogue and a slow-motion shot of her slinking across a crowded room... haha!
@@lavisdizzi3903 "The women characters in his movies are complete caricatures." Nope, don't see the word "all" anywhere in that sentence. Can I borrow your decoder ring?
People do not realize how much good acting has come from this show and she is one of the best. Heidi could transition into dramatic film roles tomorrow.
I've lived in the Valley of the Sun for 22 years & you are correct. Just like I also know, Millionaire Rapper Samson Biggz is actually a thousandaire, pretending to be a millionaire. Also, just like Scottsdale.
Heidi is brilliant at creating the lost soul, the damaged and destroyed life, the wrenching pathos of what might have been in the course of a l life, and making it somehow also funny.
Yooooooooooooo watched this last night live and first thing in the morning I had to find this video to say what an insanely amazing job she did in this skit. She killed it!!!!!!!
I didn't breathe from "I wanna dance" to the end of the bit because i was laughing so damn hard. If you're a fan of cinematic cocaine this might be funniest thing you've ever seen.
Heidi said in an interview with Keenan Thompson, posted a few months ago, that she felt she was bombing in this sketch which made her try even harder to try to win the audience over. Too bad the studio audience didn't respond better because I thought her character was hilariously accurate and funny.
Heidi's voice is perfect for these hilariously tragic characters. This one is right up there with the ever put out "Boxer's Wife". Love her!
Yeah. One voice. It's getting old.
lol def related to the boxer's wife
i think she's funny, but this is just lazy writing... which tbh is pretty typical of snl, best days are long past.

oh hey damon!!
SHE'S ALL THAT
She's playing the character so good that makes me actually uncomfortable
It was frighteningly accurate from what I've seen, but it was kind of depressing. She did a good job though.
It was so good I felt bad cause I remembered all the coke addicts I met in college. And then she started pretending to hit herself and that disappeared
The sketch kind of needed her to say at the very end "directed by David O. Russell," to dissipate built up intensity/tension.
Same.
Actually what i was thinking....can a person play a part too good
Are her kids at her sista's?
Ask Colin, he should know.
Head cannon carla is the sister
Every Boxer's wife if the Boxer was successful
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Gotta stay in the loop
Totally nailed EVERY woman in EVERY drug movie -- She's so brilliant at this that it's simultaneously funny, tragic, painful, & uncomfortable
The tremor in her voice completely sells this
“You’re hurting me Michael!” I’m dead!!!!
The fact she couldn't hold the gun properly felt so accurate

She legit stuns the crowd sometimes. It's supposed to be comedy but you just get caught up in her performance.
Well said
I see Heidi spent the lockdown in her lab building characters.
She should spend quite a bit more time there. Ffs, Michaels knows he can just throw shit at the wall, a la L Jones, and something will stick somewhere
Especially at 1:02 lol
Your 1k like agrees and thinks she did damn good job at it too.
Heidi?

And Lorraine bracco in Scarface

Also Julianne Moore and Heather Graham in 'Boogie Nights' , Lorraine Braco and Debbie Mazur in 'Goodfellas', and Jennifer Lawrence in 'Hustle'.

She tapped into every 80's cocaine movie for this one. LOL

A bit of Julianne Moore in Boogie Nights and Jennifer Lawrence in American Hustle, too.

Heidi's range is outstanding. Every character she plays you actually believe its real
Agree. Unlike che who has short range...
? She plays different flavours of the same character - the antithesis of range.
Che is so bleuh. No range whatsoever

@@robertmoffit1135 I assumed that went without saying. Heidi is exceptionally beautiful.
Wow, she's a good actress I was legitimately concerned for her in some moments excellent acting!
I swear, she did every 80’s movie in one. PERFECTO!
Kudos for her not backing down when the skit wasn't that well received.
You can hear the glasses in the audience fog up
I don’t think it wasn’t well received; I started taking it seriously 😂 she’s so good at this, it was uncomfortable
She just acted out every 80's cop show druggie! And she obviously still doesn't know about cell phones!
"I'm sorry, Starsky! Please, don't tell Hutch! It would crush him, baby!"

for a short while then it got old
Possibly one of the finest sketches with Heidi

🎶She's on fire! 🎶 Lmao
Exactly 👆👆💯💯😁😆😅😍

@@arain764niara me either. Please enlighten us :-)

"Let me give you a son, Michael." This was a brilliant performance.
I couldn’t hold a straight face working with her.
You work for SNL too?
they rehearse these for days.. even the funniest material tends to deliver diminished returns the 3rd, 5th, 10th, time you run through it..
This performance is so committed the audience is barely laughing because Heidi's actually making them uncomfortable.
there was also less people because of covid
Heidi is a smoke show here even as a crazed coke who-were
I have always wondered how they spelled that word.
Lmao who-were is exactly how Frank Reynolds would say that
LOL I had to upvote just for "who-were" XD
I always thought this was spelled "hoo-wah". Well, I sit corrected.
Agreed, she’s a babe
honestly one of the best update characters, I love Heidi

I love how she just latched on to Michael.
Holy SHIT. That was an award winning performance.
80's cocaine wife😁😂😂😂
I'm weak😂😂😂
